2005 Suzuki Forenza Recall Record

Recall ID # 12V397000 - EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Recall Date:

AUG 14, 2012

Component:

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Model Affected:

Forenza

Units Affected:

101688

Description

Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 Forenza and model year 2005-2006 Reno vehicles manufactured from September 23, 2003, through March 7, 2006. Increased resistance due to poor contact between the terminals of certain wires can generate heat that can melt the splice pack used to connect the power circuit wires for the headlamps. This can result in intermittent or total loss of low/high beam headlamp function.

Consequence

If the headlamps fail to function, this will lead to reduced driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Suzuki will notify owners, and Suzuki dealers will reconnect the affected wires with two heat-shrink crimps, free of charge. The safety recall began on September 25, 2012. Owners may contact Suzuki at 1-877-697-8985.
